OpenAI: GPT-4o-mini Search Preview
🇺🇸 OpenAI · GPT-4o-mini Search
Overview
OpenAI: GPT-4o-mini Search Preview is a large language model API from OpenAI, part of its GPT-4o-mini Search model family. At $0.150 per million input tokens and $0.600 per million output tokens, it sits in the budget tier — among the cheaper options for high-throughput or cost-sensitive workloads. Output tokens cost about 4× as much as input, so prompt-heavy workloads run noticeably cheaper than generation-heavy ones. The 128K-token context window — around 192 pages of text — comfortably handles long documents, multi-file code, or extended conversations. All prices on this page reflect OpenRouter's routed rates and are re-synced automatically every day; confirm against the provider's official pricing before committing to production.
